Angry Ghost Caught On TV?

Angry Ghost Caught On TV?

Televisions crews, psychics and paranormal investigators have been flocking to a store in Gloucester, England, that seems to have video proof of the existence of ghosts.

After finding the store a mess one morning staff at Poundstretcher on Eastgate Street examined CCTV footage of the night before.

What shocked them was the sight of a ghostly figure of a Victorian woman pushing a whole pallet of goods to the ground.

A bit of research shows that the shop stands on the site of an old Theatre - The Theatre Royal, later known as The Palace. It was first opened in 1791 and closed in 1922.

There have been previous stories of a haunting in the building. One such tale tells of a young woman who, it's said, took her own life, and was found hanging from a piece of theatre equipment beneath the stage.

It's the ghost of this poor woman who staff claim to have captured on camera.

The deputy manageress of Poundstretcher, Sue Cooper, told us it's not the first time she's come into close contact with the apparition. She said, "You can often feel her presence, sometimes you can feel an icy cold. You can feel a gagging or choking, especially downstairs in the cellar."

There are links for the video and the audio interview of the Store Manager. I looked closely and can't really see the "Victorian woman" they are referring to.

I saw one of those once. I was staring at a placid landscape when all of a sudden a ghost came screaming out of the scenery. I was convinced.

Sorry, there isn't one. :-)

But I did forward the pic to all my friends as a Halloween prank.

The vido is messed up; pixels go haywire about 12-15 seconds into the clip....and I couldn't make out any movement

Conclusion: there's NO SUCH THING as ghosts haunting places.

I watched it several times. It sure looks weird. I would be interested to see what an unbiased and professional film expert has to say about it though.

This poor spirit needs help and guidance to cross over to the other side.

I can't tell. Are you kidding? Give the details if you would.

I saw a ghost in a picture once that was pretty spooky.

It was the famous Lancashire Ghost
